Barnaby Joyce is in Darwin this morning at the start of his first visit to the Top End as Federal Agriculture Minister. He'll address a regional meeting of the commodity forecasting agency ABARES and meet Territory cattle farmers. They are particularly keen to hear about the Coalition's efforts to restart the live cattle trade with Indonesia, as well as views on foreign investment in northern cattle stations.
